How To Cook A Perfect Corned Beef Recipes

CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE I

Steps:

• Place corned beef in large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the spice packet that came with the corned beef. Cover pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender.
• Add whole potatoes and carrots, and cook until the vegetables are almost tender. Add cabbage and cook for 15 more minutes. Remove meat and let rest 15 minutes.
• Place vegetables in a bowl and cover. Add as much broth (cooking liquid reserved in the Dutch oven or large pot) as you want. Slice meat across the grain.

CORNED BEEF

Steps:

• Place the water into a large 6 to 8 quart stockpot along with salt, sugar, saltpeter, cinnamon stick, mustard seeds, peppercorns, cloves, allspice, juniper berries, bay leaves and ginger. Cook over high heat until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the ice. Stir until the ice has melted. If necessary, place the brine into the refrigerator until it reaches a temperature of 45 degrees F. Once it has cooled, place the brisket in a 2-gallon zip top bag and add the brine. Seal and lay flat inside a container, cover and place in the refrigerator for 10 days. Check daily to make sure the beef is completely submerged and stir the brine.
• After 10 days, remove from the brine and rinse well under cool water. Place the brisket into a pot just large enough to hold the meat, add the onion, carrot and celery and cover with water by 1-inch. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Remove from the pot and thinly slice across the grain.

CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for about 6-7 mins, then drain.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the onion for 3-4 mins over a medium heat. Add the potatoes and corned beef, and push down with a spatula to crisp up, cooking for about 5 mins. Turn the mixture over, trying not to break up the meat and potatoes too much, then add the Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another 5 mins, pushing down to crisp the base again. Season a little, then serve with baked beans and a sprinkling of parsley, if you like.

CRISPY CORNED BEEF FRITTERS

Steps:

• Open the pesky and weirdly shaped can of corned beef. Pull the meat out, pop it into a medium-sized bowl and break it up with a fork.
• Shred the potatoes on a box grater and rinse them with cold water to remove the starch. Give them a good squeeze to remove the excess liquid.
• Add the grated onion, flour, egg, pepper, and baking powder. Mix well with a fork.
• Get a large skillet good and hot. I love making these fritters on my Blackstone griddle, but you can use any good heavy-bottomed skillet.
• Working in batches, melt about 1/2 tablespoon of butter and 1/2 tablespoons of oil in the skillet. When foamy and hot, drop large-ish spoonfuls (up to about 1/4 cup/60 mL) into the hot fat. Flatten them somewhat with a flipper, but don't press them down too much.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes then flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes or until they're golden brown and crispy. Set them aside on a plate and tent loosely with foil to keep them warm.
• Repeat with more oil and butter and work in batches until they're all fried and crispy. Enjoy!
